App

A new app is available for Android devices called DataSize Explorer that is designed to let you find the files and apps that are taking up the biggest part of your device storage. The app has a simplistic interface that gives you a proportional visualization to look at.

If you're old enough to remember the good old days of block-breaking games like Arkanoid, Breakout, etc, then you've probably been wishing for them to make a comeback. The developers of the new game Grey Cubes say they've created the modern version of the classic arcade favorite, bringing together the same simple gameplay we're familiar with, but with a three-dimensional feel and graphics.

Happy Labs is happy making happy games for happy people. Okay, that may be an exaggeration but a new fun and exciting app from the developer is ready to make you go "Awww..." every time you play. (Well, maybe only the kids and the ladies who like cutesy stuff and graphics.) Happy Pet Story is another home and pet simulation game which means another time waster. The mobile game developer released this app last week both on Android and iOS, ready to take on the world of virtual pets.

An app called Flynx has exited beta and is now available to download in version 1.0. The app has been quite popular during its beta stage and is designed to make it easier and more convenient for you to open links in your favorite apps.

If one day your son or daughter walks up to you and tells you, "Daddy/Mommy, someday I want to be a venture capitalist!", how will you react? Well, instead of freaking out, maybe you'd like to refer them to this new game for your Android device? It won't teach them how to actually be one (especially if your kid is like, 6 years old), but AdVenture Capitalist is a fun way for them (and you) to practice running a business.

Seems like there’s a big issue with Lollipop users about Google tweaking the usually generic “silent mode” in Android 5.0. With Lollipop, you get a “no notifications whatsoever” mode and you get what is called “Priority mode”. After all the discussions (you should see the reddit thread via the source link), some people would just really want one “silent mode” on their phones. That’s what SoundHUD tries to bring.

When describing Samsung’s proprietary apps, we could most likely use the term “hit or miss”. There are some Samsung apps (and features) that just defy logic. And then there are some that are so useful you begin to think how you’ll survive without it. The floating toolbox app on the Samsung Galaxy S5 was an app that tended to be on the latter – it was useful enough that you immediately notice that the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 doesn’t have it (what’s up with that Samsung?). So enter this new app.

Opera has been trying to return to its glory days not by pushing its web browser to mobile but by offering value added services that aim to curb mobile data expenses. It's Opera Max app, which has just recently expanded to 21 countries in Asia, tries to compress data that is sent to smartphones. Now the app has gotten a new feature in the form of "App Pass", which is just a fancy marketing term for sponsored access to some apps.

Game developer David Amado Fernandez is known for making tribute games – say for example, the game “Hundred Fires” which is a tribute game for Metal Gear Solid. His most recent effort is a big nostalgia trip, especially for those who remember playing Super Mario and Legend of Zelda on a Nintendo 64 console. That’s what Super Legend Flynn 64 is – a heck of a trip down gaming memory lane.

Oh, the pirate life! Because of the Pirates of the Carribean movie franchise, as well as some books and TV shows that has romanticized the life on the high seas, some people dream of having an adventure and become the new Jack Sparrow. Okay, not exactly do that in real life, because you know, jail, but at least become that in your fantasy life. A new Android game lets you live that fantasy out on your Android smartphone or tablet. Welcome to the High Sea Saga.
